Army Hygiene is a book written by Charles Alexander Gordon and published in 1866. The book is a comprehensive guide to maintaining hygiene and health in the military. It covers a wide range of topics related to health and hygiene, including the importance of cleanliness, the prevention of disease, the treatment of wounds, and the management of epidemics. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of military hygiene. The first chapter discusses the importance of cleanliness and the various methods of maintaining it, such as personal hygiene and the cleaning of barracks and equipment. The second chapter covers the prevention of disease, including the importance of vaccination and the identification and control of infectious diseases. The third chapter is dedicated to the treatment of wounds and injuries, including the proper use of bandages and the administration of medicine. The fourth chapter covers the management of epidemics, including the identification and containment of outbreaks and the importance of quarantine measures. Throughout the book, Gordon emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy and hygienic environment in the military, as well as the role of individual soldiers in promoting good health practices. The book is a valuable resource for military personnel and anyone interested in the history of military medicine and hygiene.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
